Now that my basic problems are solved I have some minor ones.
Normally Blinky should be in the task bar, I think, but it's not there.
Is there a way to get it back?_________________Time savers:

Use peppyy's puppysearch

If your internet-conncetion starts slow, try to add higher values for "sleep".
Or if you connect with a wizard, drag
/root/my-applications/blinky-0.8-icewm/src/blinky
on your desktop with Rox, then you can start it, after you connected.

Another abnormality is, when selecting reboot the screen turns black, I see disk activity, but not the usual message like pup_save already written or something like that and after a while the reboot starts.

If I do ctrl-alt-del I get those messages.

In fact that is the same as in 3.01 with EZpup.

I wonder if for some reason there has been a mix with the 3.01 pup_save._________________Time savers:

Leaving the existing pup_save-muppy in place, I started with a fresh one.
Directly I had blinky (as soon as the network was active), freemem and icedock

I configured the 1394 connection as well (is eth2) and I got a second icon in blinky.

I'll watch now carefully to see when blinky disappears again.

EDITED:
Well that didn't take long.
I changed the locale for my country (nl_NL@EURO) and X had to be restarted.
The desktop came back except the system tray.
I tried crtl-alt-backspace to get a prompt, but to no avail.
Knowing nothing else to do to get icewm started again, I did ctrl-alt-delete
The system rebooted.
I started with the same pup_save as when the problem arrived.
The desktop came, but not the system tray.
So I tried again C-A-B and this time I got the prompt.
Xwin icewm brought back the system tray and blinky, freemem etc.

The file /root/.blinky stores the names of interfaces that you want blinky to ignore. The fact that it doesn't exist is a good thing. I don't have any further suggestions on this one, good luck Beem._________________Will

The good thing is when discussing the knowledge increases.
As said I watch this blinky thing.

Problem left: Choosing reboot from the menu doesn't behave as it should.
I do now C-A-B and type reboot/poweroff at the prompt.
If I feel the need I'll start another thread on the subject.

Also I have to launch startup by hand.

Went back to my 3.01+EZpup3.0 installation where I had the same issue of blinky and fremmem not present in the system tray.
By issuing startup I got them also.
Here I have the same issue of reboot/poweroff chosen by the menu not working correctly. So seems to be linked to icewm._________________Time savers:
